  • "A photo of three printed Think Sensory resource pages fanned out on a white surface, with a pink tape dispenser and a purple pen visible nearby. The center page is fully visible and titled 'What's Under Behavior?' It features an illustrated volcano diagram where the erupting lava at the top is labeled 'Behavior' with the note 'the visible part — what we can see.' The layers inside the volcano, from top to bottom, represent what is happening underneath: Dysregulation, described as the nervous system being overwhelmed and regulation not being accessible, with fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses; Sensory Load, described as too much, not enough, or the wrong sensory input; Unmet Needs, including hunger, thirst, tiredness, illness, and missing connection, comfort, or co-regulation; Communication Frustration, described as missing words, tools, or supports to express wants, needs, and feelings; and Developing Skills, noting that skills for coping, flexibility, and regulation are still developing and capacity fluctuates. Below the diagram, the page reads: 'When we look underneath with curiosity and compassion, we can respond to the child, not just the eruption. Underneath the eruption is where the child needs us.' The two pages behind the center page are partially visible and appear to contain related explanatory text under the same title."

  • "A photo of three printed Think Sensory resource pages fanned out on a white surface. The front page is fully visible and titled 'Fluctuating Capacity: Why the same kid can do something one day and not the next.' It features two illustrated cup diagrams flanking a simple drawing of a child. The left cup, labeled 'Someone's Monday cup,' is mostly filled with a large purple section at the bottom labeled 'Capacity for everything else,' with thin colored layers above it. The right cup, labeled 'Isn't always their Thursday cup,' shows the same cup divided into more layers from bottom to top: Physiological, Sensory load, Emotions and felt safety, Cognitive demands, and Capacity for everything else — with each layer taking up more of the cup, leaving less room at the top. The closing statement reads: 'The skill didn't change. Their capacity did.' The two pages behind are partially visible. The middle page shows a partially visible list under the heading 'Capacity is impacted by,' including sleep, sensory load, accumulated demands, illness, hormonal cycles, emotional state, and environment. The rightmost page is partially visible with a heading referencing 'Fluctuating Capacity in Kids' and a callout box titled 'When Capacity is Misunderstood,' which notes that when adults don't recognize what's going on, they might think the child is lazy, manipulative, attention-seeking, or having a regression, but states it is none of those things — the child is doing the best they can with what they have in the moment."
